And the angel of the Lord was seen by him in a flame of fire coming out of a thorn-tree: and he saw that the tree was on fire, but it was not burned up.

And when the Lord saw him turning to one side to see, God said his name out of the tree, crying, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I.

And he said, I am the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses kept his face covered for fear of looking on God.

And I have come down to take them out of the hands of the Egyptians, guiding them out of that land into a good land and wide, into a land flowing with milk and honey into the place of the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Amorite and the Perizzite and the Hivite and the Jebusite.

Come, then, and I will send you to Pharaoh, so that you may take my people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.

And he said, Truly I will be with you and this will be the sign to you that I have sent you: when you have taken the children of Israel out of Egypt, you will give worship to God on this mountain.

And God said to him, I AM WHAT I AM: and he said, Say to the children of Israel, I AM has sent me to you.

Go and get together the chiefs of the children of Israel, and say to them, The Lord, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has been seen by me, and has said, Truly I have taken up your cause, because of what is done to you in Egypt

And they will give ear to your voice: and you, with the chiefs of Israel, will go to Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and say to him, The Lord, the God of the Hebrews, has come to us: let us then go three days' journey into the waste land to make an offering to the Lord our God.

But I will put out my hand and overcome Egypt with all the wonders which I will do among them: and after that he will let you go.

For every woman will get from her neighbour and from the woman living in her house, ornaments of silver and gold, and clothing and you will put them on your sons and your daughters you will take the best of their goods from the Egyptians.

And the Lord said to him, What is that in your hand? And he said, A rod.

And the Lord said to Moses, Put out your hand and take it by the tail: (and he put out his hand and took a grip of it and it became a rod in his hand:)

Then the Lord said to him again, Put your hand inside your clothing. And he put his hand inside his robe: and when he took it out it was like the hand of a leper, as white as snow.

And if they do not have faith in you or give ear to the voice of the first sign, they will have faith in the second sign.

And Moses said to the Lord, O Lord, I am not a man of words I have never been so, and am not now, even after what you have said to your servant: for talking is hard for me, and I am slow of tongue.

So go now, and I will be with your mouth, teaching you what to say.

And the Lord was angry with Moses, and said, Is there not Aaron, your brother, the Levite? To my knowledge he is good at talking. And now he is coming out to you: and when he sees you he will be glad in his heart.

And he will do the talking for you to the people: he will be to you as a mouth and you will be to him as God.

And Moses went back to Jethro, his father-in-law, and said to him, Let me go back now to my relations in Egypt and see if they are still living. And Jethro said to Moses, Go in peace.

And Moses took his wife and his sons and put them on an ass and went back to the land of Egypt: and he took the rod of God in his hand.

And you are to say to Pharaoh, The Lord says, Israel is the first of my sons:

Now on the journey, at the night's resting-place, the Lord came in his way and would have put him to death.

So he let him go. Then she said, You are a husband of blood because of the circumcision.

And Moses gave Aaron an account of all the words of the Lord which he had sent him to say, and of all the signs which he had given him orders to do.

And Aaron said to them all the words the Lord had said to Moses, and did the signs before all the people.

And Pharaoh said, Who is the Lord, to whose voice I am to give ear and let Israel go? I have no knowledge of the Lord and I will not let Israel go.

And the king of Egypt said to them, Why do you, Moses and Aaron, take the people away from their work? get back to your work.

The same day Pharaoh gave orders to the overseers and those who were responsible for the work, saying,

But see that they make the same number of bricks as before, and no less: for they have no love for work and so they are crying out and saying, Let us go and make an offering to our God.

And the overseers of the people and their responsible men went out and said to the people, Pharaoh says, I will give you no more dry stems.

So the people were sent in all directions through the land of Egypt to get dry grass for stems.

And the responsible men of the children of Israel, whom Pharaoh's overseers had put over them, were given blows, and they said to them, Why have you not done your regular work, in making bricks as before?

They give us no dry stems and they say to us, Make bricks: and they give your servants blows but it is your people who are in the wrong.

Go now, get back to your work no dry stems will be given to you, but you are to make the full number of bricks.

And they came face to face with Moses and Aaron, who were in their way when they came out from Pharaoh:

And Moses went back to the Lord and said, Lord, why have you done evil to this people? why have you sent me?

And there came to him great numbers of people having with them those who were broken in body, or blind, or without voice, or wounded, or ill in any way, and a number of others they put them down at his feet and he made them well:

And Jesus got his disciples together and said, I have pity for the people, because they have now been with me three days and have no food: and I will not send them away without food, or they will have no strength for the journey.

And Jesus says to them, How much bread have you? And they said, Seven cakes, and some small fishes.

And he took the seven cakes of bread and the fishes and having given praise, he gave the broken bread to the disciples, and the disciples gave it to the people.

And there were four thousand men who took food, together with women and children.

But in answer he said to them, At nightfall you say, The weather will be good, for the sky is red.

An evil and false generation is searching after a sign and no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah. And he went away from them.

And Jesus said to them, Take care to have nothing to do with the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

And Jesus, seeing it, said, O you of little faith, why are you reasoning among yourselves, because you have no bread?

Or the seven cakes of bread of the four thousand, and the number of baskets you took up?

Then they saw that it was not the leaven of bread which he had in mind, but the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
